Frontiers Health 2022
As the healthcare industry emerges at last from the COVID-19 pandemic into a new, digitally supercharged world, stakeholders across the industry must move fast to embrace digital transformation. At the 2022 Frontiers Health conference in Milan, thought leaders and industry experts from across the life sciences will come together to discuss this transformation and the future of digital health.
In this Spotlight on Frontiers Health 2022, we will showcase notable highlights and discussions from the conference, including resources from pharmaphorum and Frontiers Health, as well as expert insight and analysis from those driving digital health adoption.

This year, attendees in Milan and online will discuss the future of digital therapeutics – improving patient and provider workflows, standardising definitions and regulatory schemes, and focusing on the patient experience. The conference will also showcase advances in digital care delivery and telehealth, diving into the realities of “hospital at home” offerings and the opportunities created by real-world evidence (RWE) from sensors and connected devices.
Other focus areas will include digital health funding, scaling, and business models; digital public health; and taking innovation inspiration from industries outside healthcare.
